Node classification in networks is a common graph mining task. In this paper, we examine how separating identity (a node’s attribute) and preference (the kind of identities to which a node prefers to link) is useful for node classification in social networks. Building upon recent work by Chin et al. (2019), where the separation of identity and preference is accomplished through a technique called łdecoupled smoothingž, we show how models that characterize both identity and preference are able to capture the underlying structure in a network, leading to improved performance in node classification tasks. Specifically, we use probabilistic soft logic (PSL) [2], a flexible and declarative statistical reasoning framework, to model identity and preference. We compare our approach with the original de-coupled smoothing method and other node classification methods implemented in PSL, and show that our approach outperforms the state-of-the-art decoupled smoothing method as well as the other node classification methods across several evaluation metrics on a real-world Facebook dataset [24].
